Abstract

ABSTRACT

A frozen confection having a volume of from 70 to 90 cm3, a surface to volume ratio of at least 0.17 mm-1 and generally elliptical cross sections.
A metal mould for manufacturing such frozen confection, having a usable capacity of from 70 to 90 cm3, an internal surface to capacity ratio of at least 0.17 mm-1 and generally elliptical cross sections.

Q 7097 (R) : -METAL MOULD AND ICE CONFECTION

In the art of shaping ice confections a vast number of metal moulds are known, each having one or more advantageous features, such as an attractiv~ appearance, acceptable volume and a fast freezing rate Xowever, -optimi~ing the one feature often results in the deterioration of another As a result, there is a continuous need ~or improved moulds and ice confections Or improved ~hape The invention provide6 a mould having improved features in general, having a usable capacity ranging from 70 to 90 cm3, an internal sur~ace to capacity ratio of at lea~t 0 17 mm-l and generally elliptical cross sections In a more prererred size, the mould has a usable capacity ranging ~rom 75 to 85 cm3 The expre~ion~ "u~able capacity" and "u~able depth"
relate to that part Or the capacity and depth, r-~poctively, or a mould that in practical use will be U--~ whllo preventlng ~pla-hing or spattering Or the llquld rOr ~illing out o~ the mould U~ually the usable depth i~ about 2 cm le~s than the total depth o~ a mould The u~able cap~city corre~ponds 2S A ~h~p- whlch i8 particularly appealing to the customers 1- taperlng ~rom a wider open end towards a narrower bottom end and havlng a largor wldth and a emaller wldth, o~ Which the lnternal larger width tapers ~rom th- op-n nd toward~ the bottom by not more than 6 down to ~ o~ th u~ablo depth Or the mould aOot tlck-r-talnln~ propertio- are obtained ir the int-rn~l ~mallor width ti~per~ ~rom the open end towards th~ bottom ~y not more than 4 down to ~ o~ the usable 3~ tepth or tho mould , .
''.

1329~3 Q 7097 (R) In this specification and claims the larger and the smaller width refer to the longer and the shorter axis, respectively, of the cross-sectional ellips of the ice confection or of the mould.
An attractive shape is obtained if the ratio of the principal dimensions of the cross section is at leaot 2.4, i.e. the larger to smaller width ratio. Confections cracking off the Ctick may be reduced to a minimum by arranging that the smaller width near the open end is at lea~t 20 mm and preferably at least 22 mm. Preferred length dimensions of the confection can be obtained with mouldo having an internal usable depth of at least 9 cm.

The invention also relates to ice confections made by uoing moulds o~ the above construction and having correoponding dimensional propertieo.

A pre~erred height ~or such con~ections ranges ~rom 9 to 11 cm.

The lnvention will be exemplifled in the ~ollowing ~;
d-ocrlption o~ a pre~erred embodiment o~ the invention, re~erence being had to the drawingo.
Flg. 1 is a longitudin~l section of a mould according to the invention:
Flg. 2 i~ a longltudinal oection of the mould o~ Fig.
1 taken along the line II-II in Fig. l;
Flg. 3 and Fig. 4 are crooo-oectional viewo taken along the line~ III-III and IV-IV in Fig. 1, re~p-ctlvoly7 Fig. 5 i~ a top view Or the mould o~ Fig. 17 and Flg. 6 i~ a poropective vlew o~ an ice con~ection made in the mould o~ Figureo 1-5.

In Flgure~ 1 to 5 a metal mould ~or manu~acturing ice . .

Q 7097 (R) 3 ;
lollies is shown in longitudinal section, cross section and in top view. The mould comprises a moulding pocket 1 to be filled with any fluid material to be froz~n and a rim 2 for suspending it in an ice-making machine.
Needle~s to remark, any different way of supporting the mould in an ice-making machine may be used.

The moulding packet 1 is slightly tapering from the open end 3 towards the bottom 4. All dimensional features of the mould are relating to the usable part of said mould, i.e. the part below the usual filling level 5 indicated in Figures 1 and 2 by a broken line. The internal taper o~ the mould i~ about 2-50' in the sectional view shown in Fig. 1 and about 4- in the section shown in Fig. 2.
0~ course, the rounded bottom portion 7, e.g. the lower quarter o~ the usable part of the mould, should be left out o~ consideration, i.e. below the dot and dash line 6. The sll~ptical ~hape Oe the cro~s ~ections is clearly to be 60en in Figures 3 and 4, being taken at ~ of the w ablo depth 6 and at the usual filling level 5, reop~ctiv~ly. The ratio o~ the larger width w to the ~maller width t o~ the~e cross ~ectlons should be at least 2.4.

The omaller width t2 at th~ ~illing level 5, as indioated in Fig. 4 ~hould be at least 20 and preferably at leaot 22 mm.

81~11ar reguir-~-nt~ apply to the ice con~ection 7 which 30 can be ma~e ln the above mould. This ice coneection 7, a- hown in peropectlve v~ew in Flg. 6, ha~ roughly a tongu---hape and 1~ provlded with a u~ual s~lck 8. The thiakn-~ t2 at the thl¢k ena, wh re the otick 8 is ln~-rted, ohould be at leaot 20 ~m and preferably at 3S l-a~t 22 mm.

~gain, the width to thicknees ratio w/t ~hould be at 1329~8~
Q 7097 (R) least 2.4. The height h is ranging from g to 11 cm.

The ice confection is tapering from the thick end towards the tip and has a width tapering from the thick end towards the tip by not more than 6- up to 3/4 of the height of the confection and a thickness by not more .
than 4-. Pre~erred tapers are about 3- and about 4-, respectively.
